The Jungle Cross Series is for the whole family, with categories for all ages from 5 to 75 years. Unsure? Come on down and check out the action for yourself. The Jungle Cross Series is held at the private Centaurs Jungle Trail, Turf City, Bukit Timah.

Details

The Jungle Cross series enters it's 4th year in 2019. Over the years we have strived to make the Turf City course better for riders of all levels, whether a young beginner or a seasoned elited rider. The course is now nearly 4km in length and boasts terrain that is both challenging and beautiful. It's quite remarkable that such a course can exist in the middle of urban Singapore.

The Races

The series will consist of the following races that will run throughout the year on dates that do not clash with other major road or mtb cycling events. The dates are:

Race 1: 10 February

Race 2: TBA

Race 3: TBA

Race 4: TBA

Race 5: TBA

Note: Dates may change due to clashes or poor weather conditions (haze). Each race will be confirmed and open for registration one month before. Please do let us know if there is a potential clash in the calendar.

Race Categories

Race categories for MTB and All Mountian are currently being finalised.

More Sponsors / More Fun

In 2019 we really need the help of the community to build a vibrant and happening event. For this, we need sponsors to support the efforts to maintain and build the course, as well as provide prizes for events.

Route

In 2019 the idea is to provide one course for all MTB / All Mountain participants, with A & B lines available for the any difficult sections.

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

Please check through the frequently asked questions below. If you can't find the answer you're most welcome to drop us a question here.

Q: Do I need a SCF or UCI licence for this race?

Q: Can I register on the day?

A: No - You must register on the website and registration will be closing Thursday 6pm before each Sunday event. Final sign in and timing chip pickup will be on the day. You just need to come 40 minutes before the scheduled start of your race.

Q: How do I collect my Race Bib and Timing Chip?

A: Please be at the Centaurs Sports Park at least 40 minutes before your race to sign in and pick up your timing chip and race number.

Please note: Timing chips and race numbers must be returned after your race (they are worth $100 so we must get them back)

Q: Can I cancel my booking once entered?

A: No, once paid, your entry is confirmed and nontransferable.

Q: What setup do I need to enter the All Mountain Category?

A: Full Suspension with 130mm of travel or more.

Q: Why are there so many SCF race categories yet only 3 races?

A: SCF is following the UCI categories that are recognised internationally. As we only have time for 3 races and many of the categories will have very small numbers, we need to group these categories. We can, however, include multiple waves in each race so that you don't all start at the same time.

Q: Does this mean there will be prizes for each SCF Category?

A: Yes and No. For the day's prize giving, we will recognise every SCF category that has 3 or more participants and have a podium presentation. As there are so many categories and numbers are unknown (this is the first year), we intend to present a "perpetual" trophy for the photo shots which is not kept by the individuals. At the end of the season, there will be trophies for the overall winners, 2nd and 3rd of each SCF category that has 3 or more points winners.

We are hoping to have sponsorship prizes for individual races and will update this page soon.

Q: How can I warm up before my race?

A: Please use surround roads (non-circuit) of Turf City and take caution and ensure you are back in time for your start time.

Q: Do you have medics on hand in case of emergency?

A: Yes we have a full medical team stationed at the event and ambulances on standby.

Q: I'd like to help out (volunteer) on the day - is that possible?

A: Absolutely - we always need help running these events. Please drop us a message here.

Event T&C's

Feed Zone

There will be a new feedzone area. Supporters should only use this area to support their riders.

Staging Area

This year there will be a defined staging area which riders for the next race can gather and get ready for their race. In this way riders are more prepared for their race and there is less time needed between the start of each new race / wave.

Pull Out

If you are lapped by the lead rider, the marshals can pull you out of the race, depending on the number of riders still participating. You will be advised to "pull out" just before the start / finish, however you can go through the Start / Finish gantry to record the lap and immediately pull out after this.

Category Placings

Even if you do not finish the race, we will "place" you according to how many laps you completed and the time. In this way if riders fail to complete all their laps due to time constraints, they will still have a recorded placing that is fair.

What's the Jungle Cross All About?

Cycosports began with the idea of creating professional yet affordable road races for the cycling community of Singapore. But we soon realised that other cyclist outside of Singapore, such as Indonesia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Malaysia were also looking for competitive amateur races in the region. Learn More
